Wiki software updated

Post by Fnordia »

The wiki software has been updated to the latest version, 1.10. I've also installed a captcha extension for new user signup and anonymous edits that includes links, as well as the spam blacklist extension.

Hopefully this will help with the wiki spam problem. One issue may be that spambots will reuse old accounts (since only new accounts would require passing the captcha), so I guess some account cleanup will have to be done if this turns out to be a problem.

Unfortunately the wiki spring skin wasn't quite compatible with the new version, so I'll leave the default skin on for a while until it has been updated.

Wiki skin has been updated, should hopefully look like before.

Also, I think the formatting used on the front page doesn't work with this new wiki version (looks the same with the default skin), so perhaps someone could update it. :)

Great! I hope I can find some time to integrate the new Wiki version in the new site soon.

The last fix broke my page:

http://spring.clan-sy.com/wiki/Tactical_Smash

and the main page:

http://spring.clan-sy.com/wiki/Main_Page

I really hope this fixes it.

In the mean time formatting is broken and the frontpage looks a little borked in places as a result.

Weird, I log in, and it shows the wiki, not the front page.

Makes me sad :[

These added measures are a protection against spambots, not human vandals.. The captcha is configured by default to show up when registering a new user or when an anonymous user adds a new external link.

The config syntax for disabling anonymous editing had changed, which is why anonymous editing was allowed again for a while.
